the investigation of the Obeldee, Celtic, He

work are said to have been preseried, and
to form one of the rarest monuments of in

in February, 1144 T-45. Aram was . acoord
lngly
. apprehended in his school at Lynn,.
;hero he was an usher, and renew:kJ to
/le adthitted his intimacy with
Clark ; at first denied that he was concerned d
in the Knaresborough triads, but afterwards
I confeased that-heiwas,astti te - giVr
a minute account of his transactions at his
house the night before Clark diaappeired.
"As to Clark he could not tell whether ho
was murdered or nut; he knew' nothlng 01
him, only that they Loki him that he was
gone on."
On the 3d of August, 1759, both Aram
and Houseman were brought to the bar.
llonseinan a as arraigned, acquitted and ad
mitted as evidence against Aram, and de
pitied : That in the 111111 ht 'het ween'the 7th
and Bth of February, 1744-5, about 11
o'clock, he went to Anun's house.; that
after two hours spent about the goods, .Aram
asked Clark and Houseman to Vl'L*. out of
Warn ; that when they came into tilt:
whare "St. Robert's Cave" is, Aram and
Glark, went into it, over the hedge, and
when they came within shun or eight feet
of the cave, he saw - them quarrelling ; that
be saw Aram_strike Clark !several times,
upon which. Clark fell ; that upon this, with
out any-alarm, he left them and returned
home ; that the next day .Aram r i (flied to
Cell what ho had done with Clark, and
threatened him if hu mentioned anything
relating to the &tram Arain's knowledge
of Clark a having received his wife's fortune,
was proved at the trial. John Baker, the
constable who served the warrant, deposed
r el CI soon
taown Uottaatialui or framer Clark, Jut
retracted watt he had toad. The 'skull was
ritothteed in Court, with s fracture on the
left aide of it, which the surgeons pronoun
ced was of many years' standing, and could
not have proceeded from natural decay.
Anon produced no witnesses, and conduc
ted hits own defence ; the barbarity of the
English haw denying him counsel. Wlteu
'what if ho had anything to say in his own
behalf he arrose and delivered that reinaika
ble defence, which has been prououueud
“too ingenious for innocence, and eloquent
enough to do credit to that long premedita
tion, which the interval between the deed
and its discovery had ailorded," Ile first
instanced the " utter improbability" of &Leh
a charge, and appealed ee "the whole tenni ,
of his conduct as contradicting every ream
nlar of this indictment." This, too, NI as
Dr. Webster's strong reliance for an acquit
tal.' The prisoner then' cited the state of
his health, as inconsistent with the commis
sion of the murder, he hating "hut a little
space before being confined to los bed and
becotno so emaciated, so enfeebled as to be
reduced to crutches, and having never, to
day of his trial, pi.ifectry recovered."—
"Besides," urgjel Aram, "an action of this
atrocioin; naturete never hoard of, but when
its springs are laid open, it appears that it
was to support some indolence, or supply
some luxury, to satisfy avarice, or oblige
some malice ; to prevent reel or imaginary
want. Yet I lay not under the influence of
tiny of these."
Clark's disappearance, said Area was but
a poor argument that heWaY dead. Win.
Thompsonhad but two years before escaped
from the castle of York, "in open day high
and double irons," and after all Inquiry and
search, never had been neared of. "If
Thompson got oft unseen, through all these
difficulties, how very easy wag it, for Clark
when none opposed him I" In regard to this
bones that were supposed to be Clark's, it
was suggeotvil by Arain that there wog " rib
knowiii4iferiqn by.,_whii the sex is &icon
testibly distinguished in human bones, and
*at the ascertaining of this point wheth
er they were the bones of a man, ought to
precede any attempt to indentify than."
flee°, thp prisoner instanced with facility
several places, in which bones had been
found, tinder .circumstances and in spots
analagenst.to those. There were other in
genious points in this defence—and the con
clusion was bold and abrupt, as follows : "I

siLlier_foritute,..puLteiyoelf_urgio_the candor,
the justice, and the humanity of your lord
ship and upon yours, my countrymen, Gen

to have been committed by -Aram : and that
